Tuesday was 20 mins of SS cardio, weighed in at 190 lbs, although had the lowest body fat reading on my scale by far(over 3% lower than previous low), and highest muscle% reading(over 2% higher)...also noticed acne is spreading and I am getting it in more places...forehead, under lower eyelid, side of neck, under pecs, side of legs, and several more on my shoulder...this is getting kinda crazy, haven't had acne like this in probably 20 years...

Had another interesting night on Saturday...got hit on directly a few times and looked up and down and smiled at about 3 or 4 more times. Also had the indiscriminate "brush" by a couple more women walking behind me that looked back and smiled after passing me when I looked to see who it was. Had to laugh to myself as I was the last person in the vicinity as I was talking to a few of my buddies and there was about 5 or 6 feet of open space to walk but yet they still "brushed" me on the way by...ahh, if I was only single again...

I live for Sundays and cheat days. I have no idea how many calories I typically eat on one of these days, but I would have to estimate it is between 8-10K...I usually start if off with a nice big bowl of ice cream when I wake up in the morning, a few pop tarts, some peanut butter and chocolate(I love to make homemade reese's cups) and whatever else I can get my greedy little hands on.

DENSITY I

WORKOUT SET A:

Front Squat: 135lbs 5R x 6(4,050 lbs/30 reps)
Bent Row: 165lbs 5R x 6(4,950 lbs/30 reps)
Rest 5 Mins
Front Squat: 145lbs 5R x 4(2,900 lbs/25 reps)
Bent Row: 175lbs 5R x 4(3,500/25 reps)
Rest 5 Mins
-I intentionally reduced the weight because I felt my form was getting a little iffy. I made sure squats were going very deep, parallel or slightly lower and my legs felt like they were going to explode by the end. Back rows I made sure I was staying bent over properly, as I noticed with the heavier weight I seemed to get more vertical...less weight, but much more effective workout as I was extremely sore the next day for the first time in a long time.

Total Weight: 15,400 lbs(-4,350 lbs from last time)
Total Reps: 100 reps(-10 reps from last time)


WORKOUT SET B:
Reverse Lunge: 40DB 5R x 4(1,600 lbs/20 reps)
Upright Row: 80BB 5R x 4(1,600 lbs/20 reps)
Bench Press: 160lbs 5R x 4(3,200 lbs/20 reps)
Rest 5 Mins
Reverse Lunge: 40DB 5R x 4(1,600 lbs/20 reps)
Upright Row: 90BB 5R x 4(1,800 lbs/20 reps)
Bench Press: 170lbs 5R x 2/4R x 1/3R x 1(2,890 lbs/17 reps)
Rest 5 Mins

Total Weight: 12,690 lbs(-310 lbs from last time)
Total Reps: 117 reps(-3 reps from last time)
-really ran out of gas on the Bench Presses on last 2 sets...

WORKOUT SET C:
Bicep Curl: 45DB 5R x 4(1,800 lbs/20 reps)
Lateral Raise: 20DB 5R x 4(800 lbs/20 reps)
Rest 2 Mins
Bicep Curl: 45DB 5R x 5(2,250 lbs/25 reps)
Lateral Raise: 20DB 5R x 5(1,000/25 reps)

Total Weight: 5,850 lbs(+450 lbs from last time)
Total Reps: 90 reps(same as last time)
-was hammering out bicep curls with the 45 lb DBs...biceps were extremely sore the next day and are still sore today...really worked them hard, and was pretty impressed with doing 45s at the end of this workout especially after being down 20+ lbs in weight...

Total Workout Time: 53 mins
Total Workout Weight: 33,940 lbs(-4,210 lbs from last time)
Total Workout Reps: 307 reps(+5 reps from last time)
Total Lbs/Min: 640.38 lbs/min
Total Reps/Min: 5.79 reps/min

-although I lifted less weight than last time, I felt it was a much more effective workout and the muscle soreness definitely seemed to tell the tale that it was...

dude what is it with you and the chicks!?
if you were single you would be like a dog with two dicks :twisted:

never heard of Isatori Isa-Test GF before, looked up the profile and it looks sick. how are you finding it now? worth the money? I may have to invest.
Also over Easter did you find you couldn't lift as much due to shots? I know sprites have a big impact on my workout so I avoid em.

another quick one, how are you finding the lactic acid training? are do you get DOMS the next day? felt an increase in muscle or decrease in fat that you could put a finger on as a result from the GH/lactic acid workout?

thanks man!
:wink:

I dunno what it is. I think they might like the tight shirts with my chest busting out of them, or maybe my wide back...I'll have to ask one of them next time. I have had a few customers come in to my store and mention that I have an "escort" body...hahaha

Isatest I completely love. Its awesome. I use it with the recipe. Price point is phenomenal. Found this cause I couldn't afford both AN and MPS. Planning on getting 2 more bottles soon.

Easter, didn't notice much of a difference but I didn't have that much to drink.

Thing I notice most from GH training is I feel sick to my stomach for about 3 or 4 hours afterwards. Hard to point to anyone thing regarding fat loss as each day is based off what was done before it...

Gotta post a few workouts, as I was in Ohio for a week. I ended up blowing my diet pretty good although I kept my workouts going, I ended up gaining 7 lbs!!! After talking with Rob, I feel a good portion of it was probably water weight from the increased carb intake, but still...

Don't see much difference in my body, still look pretty much the same, although my muscles feel bigger and fuller...

Getting ready start MI40 Thursday after taking a few days off to rest and recover. Starting with a 1 week primer to get myself ready for the actual program, which is 40 straight days, no complete off days, which will be starting next Sunday.

Going to start a famine to get ready for Synthagen, which I just received today, on Saturday, which will last 5 days, until Wednesday, at which point I will rest and eat for 3 days in preparation to begin MI40.

Post MI40, I will be running custom BP runs from Rob for 3 or 4 cycles before likely going on another cut starting around February or so...

Can't wait to get started, hoping to gain size and drop body fat on this run...
